Project Description: I have an existing kitchen and an eating area which I would like to remodel; I need to combine the eating area and the kitchen into a one big kitchen, there are no walls to demolish just a big casing / cabinet for fridge and a counter top in the way to open the area up.
I need to redesign a modern and efficient kitchen. I prefer dark wood and granite. I also like to have gas cooker top rather than one big stove and double ovens and need an island.
Thank you.
